-Effie: "How odd 당신 two find it amusing. 당신 know your mentor is your lifeline to the world in these Games. The one who advises you, lines up your 후원 and dictates the presentation of any gifts. Haymitch can well be the difference between your life and death!"
-We're going to be thrown into an arena to fight to the death. Exactly how am I supposed to work in a thank-you in there? Somehow it just won't seem sincere if I'm trying to slit his throat
-Effie: Just remember, Katniss, 당신 want the audience to like you.
Katniss: And 당신 don’t think they will?
Effie: Not if 당신 glare at them the entire time. Why don’t 당신 save that for the arena? Instead, think of yourself among friends.
Katniss: They’re betting on how long I’ll live! They’re not my friends!
Effie: Well, try and pretend! See, like this. I’m smiling at 당신 even though you’re aggravating me.
Katniss: Yes, it feels very convincing.
Katniss: I guess all those hours decorating cakes paid off.
Peeta: Yes, frosting. The final defence of the dying.
-Katniss: Peeta, 당신 said at the interview you’d had a crush on me forever. When did forever start?
Peeta: Oh, let’s see. I guess the first 일 of school. We were five. 당신 had on a red plaid dress and your hair…it was in two braids instead of one. My father pointed 당신 out when we were waiting to line up.
Katniss: Your father? Why?
Peeta: He said, ‘See that little girl? I wanted to marry her mother, but she ran off with a coal miner.’”
Katniss: What? You’re making that up!
Peeta: No, true story. And I said, ‘A coal miner? Why did she want a coal miner if she could’ve had you?' And he said, ‘Because when he sings…even the birds stop to listen.
-All of the pieces are still fitting together, but I sense he has a plan forming. He hasn't accepted his death. He is already fighting hard to stay alive. Which also means that kind Peeta Mellark, the boy who gave me the bread, is fighting hard to kill me.
Rue, who when 당신 ask her what she loves most in the world, replies, of all things, “Music.”
